PAK vs ENG | Twitter erupts as Sajid Khan’s fiery death stare caps brilliant delivery to Ollie Pope

Vaseline October 16, 2024

Pakistan were bowled out for 366 runs, largely thanks to Kamran Ghulam’s debut century and Jack Leach’s four-wicket haul. In response, England openers, Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley, got off to a strong start, taking the score to 73/0 in 12 overs. However, Noman Ali broke the opening partnership by dismissing Crawley in the 13th over. Duckett, joined by Ollie Pope, then added 52 runs, with Duckett reaching his half-century off just 47 balls. Just when the partnership looked solid, Sajid Khan struck, removed Pope and followed it up with a fiery celebration.

On the third ball of the 24th over, Sajid delivered a brilliant off-break by flying the ball around the off-stump. The ball landed on the Rough and turned sharply back in. Pope leaned forward to push it to the offside, leaving a large gap between bat and pad. The ball sneaked through the fence and crashed into the tree stump. As the stumps shattered, Sajid erupted into a fiery celebration, staring Pope down as he walked back to the pavilion. The moment quickly caught the attention of Twitter users, who shared their reactions on social media.

Sajid Khan is visibly frustrated with Salman Agha’s moves in the briefs. If Salman had stayed at his original position, it could have been a catch. Sajid’s displeasure is clearly visible as he shows his frustration on the field.#BenDuckett #TestCricket #ENGvPAK #PakistanCricket #PAKvENG… pic.twitter.com/Qh1gVIiBPT
